  • How to care for your moustache 
    A moustache needs to be cleaned daily, with a face wash, to remove grime and food buildup. Afterwards, condition and hydrate your moustache and the area around it with essential oils. Just rub a small amount on your moustache and skin to hydrate well. In addition, consider vitamins and minerals in your diet or as a supplement to promote hair growth. Look out for vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C and vitamin E to nourish your hair follicles and strengthen hair from the inside.
     
  • How to style your moustache
    Trimming is an important part of moustache maintenance. Have a pair of small scissors to trim rogue hairs but also a razor blade to maintain the shape of the moustache. Everyone has a different hair type – some might have more volume than others, but wax helps control the volume and maintain shape. In addition, having a fine moustache comb will help keep the moustache clean and neat.
     
  • Best moustaches for your face
    It’s important to into account your face shape when considering a moustache style. Not everyone can pull off the “Tom Selleck” or “John Waters.” A square face matches better with a heavy, longer moustache while an oval face should consider a medium width style with a slightly angular shape.
     
  • Most popular moustache of 2016
    Traditional ones like Tom Selleck/Ron Swanson are more popular with an older generation but the scruff moustache (mix of stubble and moustache) are the most popular among celebrities like Ryan Goslin and James Franco.
